Mr. Mitchell's home while not pretentious In its
exterior as some OF other wealthy ia this city,
furnished with most peculiar combination Of comfort
and elegance. Many OF the more costly works OF art
and elegant furnishings were the selection OF Mrs.
Mitchell, who is great admrer OF art and patron OF

or other bric-a-brac, Mr.. Mitchell would say o,
that's something that my wife got abroad. suppose
it's fne thing ut any rate she says So" While
making no pretensons the knowledge of art matters
possessed by bis wife, Mr. Mitchell always supported
all her ideas on such matters with the utmost
enthusiasm and generosity He had a habit OF saying
sometimes when little in doubt concerning certain
pro ,osed action 40, III leave that entirely to my
wife. Whatever she says will be all right"
few years ago, on the occasion OF the return Of
Mrs Mitchell from prolonged absence from the city,
the Robert Chvas Post OF the Grand Army, headed
by O brass band marched into Mr. Mitchelps grounds
and gave the lady serenade Mrs. Mitchell
accompanied by few friends, went to the front porch
where they were soon joined by Mr. Mitchell. After
the band ceased playing one OF the members OF tho
Grand Army made speech highly eulogistie OF
Mrs Mitchell. The lady was not little overcome BY
the demonstration and when the speech was finished
she turned to where husband stood IN the shadow
of pillar. MIR. Mitchell, responding TO tho mute
invitation stepped to the 'front.' and standing In the
glaring light of hundreds OF torches, no made prob
ably the most eloquent speech OF his lifetime. In
most touching words he alluded to his wife, and
expressed his great qualification at the honor paid her
and the appreciation shown OF her efforts ON behalf OF
the Grand Army men.

A Startling Story From Way DOwn IR
 Texas.


 Texas.
 WoRCEsTER, Mass, Oct 31.-A new and startling story in connection with the disap- pearance and death of Liliie Hoyle, of Web ster, has developed to day. Saturday the Webster postmaster received a letter from man living few miles outside of Fl Paso, Texas, in which the following story is told: The writer says he sends the story for what it is worth, deeming it his duty. A week or two ago an Irishman applied to him for work on his plantation and one day betrayed great deal of interest in the story of the Webster tragedy which his employer read from New York paper. The employer af- forwards alluded to this interest and darkey on the place said the Irishnan had told the following story while under the influence of liquor: He, the Irishman, had lived in Web ster for about four months proceeding Sep tember 1 and the following story of the tragedy came from his lips: Dixon R. Cowie, the uncle of the girl, with whom she lived, was the father of her unborn child. The night of her disap- pearance, September 1, she went with him by appointment to a local doctors office. The doctor was too drunk to perform the opera tion as arranged and finally gave Cowie some medicines and an instrument. The couple then returned to the house and under Cowie's hands she died. Cowie hired the Irishman to assist in the removal of the body and young Eddie Grimley, who slept with Cowie, was also in the job The girls body was hidden in the water for day and night and then removed to where it was finally discovered. The Irishman was paid $50 and told to go to Little Rock, Ark, where he would receive $150 more. He did so, received the money and then fled into Texas After discovering that his employer knew his story the author of it fled, going in the direction of Fl Paso. The matter has been placed in the hands of the authorities.

HIS GOOD MEMORY.

How New Haven's Chief of Police
 Discovered Where Horse Had Been
 Stolen From.
 Chief of Police Bollman yesterday received the following telegram from the Thirty third police precinct, New York:
 John Latin, residence 336 Cherry street, New Haven, has offered for sale black mare fifteen hands two inches in height, weight 1 ,05o pounds with old open side bar buggy; harness and Dutch collar. Has worked on New Haven railway"
 Chief Bollman upon receipt of the telegram remembered that during the morning he had received notice from the Bridgeport chief of police that team had been stolen from near that city. Upon looking up the description given by the Bridgeport chief he found that that given by the telegram coincided per fectly.
 He at once informed both New York and Bridgeport of his discovery.
 There is no Cherry street in New Haven and the name ''John Latin" does not appear in the directory.
